Request a visit

North East Ambulance Services NHS FoundationTrust are committed to working with the local community. As part of this commitment we offer complimentary visits from our staff to your local fayre, nursery, school or college or group. 

We have a formal programme in place that ensures that you get the most from the visit and take away as much knowledge as possible about your ambulance service. 

However due to the high demand of requests we receive we cannot guarantee that we will be able to attend all events. The North East Ambulance Service does not have full time staff to cater for these visits, they are done in staff's own time, so please understand if we are unable to cover your event on your first request.

If you are interested in the North East Ambulance Service coming to visit you, please fill in the application form to the right, and remember to fill in the risk assessment form on the second page if you are requesting an ambulance to attend. To help us best manage our resources, only request a vehicle if it is an integral part of your event. Please note that because of all the arrangements that need to be made, application forms must be returned at least 6 weeks proir to your event. Requests that fall short of this time will not be considered, even if you know a member of staff willing to participate. 

Due to resource constraints we are also unable to acommodate visits which last all day.
